Cities and Memory #4 - Zora continues the existential theme of the cities and memories series...desires are already memories.
*…the man who knows by heart how Zora is made...he remembers the order by which the copper clock follows the barber’s striped awning, then the fountain with the nine jets, the astronomer’s glass tower, ...the statue of the hermit and the lion, ... the alley that leads to the harbor...in vain I set out to visit the city forced to remain motionless and always the same, in order to be more easily remembered…
…but in vain I set out to visit the city: forced to remain motionless and always the same, in order to be more easily remembered, Zora has languished, disintegrated, disappeared. The earth has forgotten her.*
